Abstract: State data are reported by the federally mandated electronic process, known as MSIS is currently collecting eligibility and claim data in 5 separate files. These data are the basis of actuarial forecasts for Medicaid service utilization and costs; of analysis and cost savings estimates required for legislative initiatives relating to Medicaid and for responding to requests for information from CMS components, the Department, Congress and other customers. The expanded version of MSIS is now referred to as TMSIS will incorporate 3 additional files (Provider, Managed Care Plans, and Third Party Liability).

Emergency Justfication: On July 4, 2025, President Trump signed Public Law (P.L.) 119-21, also known as the "Working Families Tax Cut" (WFTC) legislation. This legislation includes eligibility and financing reforms in Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) policies that impact T-MSIS data reporting. Section 71119 of the WFTC legislation amends section 1902 to include new community engagement requirements generally for people eligible to enroll or who are enrolled in the adult group as described in §435.119 or those who are eligible to enroll or are enrolled under certain 1115 demonstrations that provide minimum essential coverage (MEC). This collection of information request addresses the T-MSIS data reporting requirements related directly to performing oversight, program integrity, and administration of section 71119 of the WFTC legislation.

Short Statement: With regard to the provisions under our June 3, 2026 interim final rule with comment period (CMS-2454-IFC; RIN 0938-AV98) entitled, “Medicaid Program; Community Engagement Requirement for Certain Individuals,” CMS has created a new file segment on the T-MSIS eligibility (ELG) file to collect data related to community engagement activities for adult group and applicable 1115 demonstration beneficiaries. The new segment includes a new set of data elements that reflect community engagement data the State would collect as part of a beneficiary’s eligibility determination under section 1902(xx) of the Act. In addition to the new file segments, states are also required to add new valid values to the WAIVER-TYPE data element to identify beneficiaries participating in applicable 1115 demonstrations and the ELIGIBILITY-TERMINATION-REASON to identify disenrollment related to community engagement requirements. States are required to update their T-MSIS eligibility files to report these new data for adult group and applicable 1115 demonstration beneficiaries. The burden for this new collection is estimated based on the level of effort required for States to undertake T-MSIS reporting modifications. This comprises a one-time effort to design, build, and test system changes that will ingest enrollment data from the states’ Medicaid Enterprise Systems and update the T-MSIS file submission format to incorporate the new community engagement data. States will need between 250 – 500 hours to implement these T-MSIS reporting changes. Using the upper range, we estimate a one-time burden of 22,000 hours (44 respondents x 500 hr) at a cost of $2,913,680 (22,000 hr × $135.54/hr). After taking into account enhanced Federal Financial Participation rate of 75 percent for Medicaid Enterprise Systems, we estimate a state share of $728,420 ($2,913,680 x 0.25).

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $18,500,000
